What you shouldn't use to clean faucets in your kitchen or bathroom: it will be even worse than before cleaning

Faucets installed in the kitchen or bathroom require constant care if you want them to remain beautiful and shiny.

There are many products for cleaning faucets, but not all of them should be used.

So, it is not recommended to clean the faucet using abrasive materials or hard brushes.

These tools will indeed help remove limescale, but they will leave scratches that will later become a source of new limescale, which will be much more difficult to remove.

The use of chlorine-containing chemicals, caustic soda and preparations based on aggressive acids such as formic, hydrochloric and nitric acids is unacceptable.

The use of these substances leads to the destruction of the metal.

Even if the products are approved for use, they must not be mixed with each other.

Sometimes such mixing is undertaken to enhance the effect, but the result of such experiments is unpredictable and often destructive to the metal surface.
